Before and After

[Todd]

Hey guys,

This is just an idea of mine, it would be a blessing to hear about all the changes that people have gone through as they went from non-christian to Christian. Here's my story

Before I met Christ and became saved I was a HUGE sinner. Every second word was a swear word or Blasphemy. I didn't fight people but I wasn't scared to if I felt I needed to. I often insulted people whether it was through joke or not and I did believe in evolution for a while.

Now I am happily saved, the first thing I started doing when I became Christian was to start abiding by the 10 commandments. Suprisingly almost straight away the swearing and blasphemy went away. I still never have been in a fight and don't plan to ever be. I trust that God will fight for me. I haven't gone near making insulting jokes about people or saying bad things about them. I go to Church every Sunday (No#1 Priority), sometimes go doorknocking, try to bring friends to Christ (not every one does but its always a blessing when one does). One thing I want to do is to travel the world spreading the Gospel, and if I use all my money doing so and only one person comes to Christ and gets saved, then that'll make me happy. My girlfriend is gladly Christian, I met her at Church and we both have a rule that we'd set for ourselves before we got together, and that is that we wouldn't go out with a person that isn't Christian. If she was to become atheist tomorrow I wouldn't hesitate to dump her, and visa versa. Sounds a bit sad but I have very high doubts that will happen.
Umm, I think thats everything covered for me, so I'll leave it there.

I look forward to reading everyone else's posts.

Well ive been a Christian since like 6th grade but i havent become very serious about it till last year.
i was in some pretty bad stuff even tho i was a Christian. and when i was hurting i would turn to other sins and it just made it totally worse then i kind of lost my faith for like a month i didnt even believe in God but that wore off quick PTL! so i just hurt for a long time and at a summer camp last year this girl that i didnt even practically kno got me to spill my guts and really helped me and i just had to realize that God forgave me an i needed to forgive myself and when i did i had a smile that couldnt be wiped away! it was so awesome!!!(thats just it in a nut shell if you want to know more pm me!) but God is so awesome and has done sooo much for me i love Him!
